About Us

Application Researchers® has been in operation since 1994 and has been providing OIG LEIE research for more than fifteen years.

Application Researchers® is designated as a small, woman-owned business.

ExclusionALERT™, a service of Application Researchers®, was formed in 2013, to offer the healthcare industry a compliance solution for OIG sanction checks.

ExclusionALERT™ garners the LEIE lists from the Federal OIG, as well as all states providing their own list, every time a client request is entered. This ensures that the most accurate, up-to-date information is used in the comparison process.

ExclusionALERT™ is the compliance solution, which thoroughly checks the names of all employees, prospective employees, vendors and physicians through a three-step process:

Through our automated process, all names (and other pertinent data) are searched for exact matches or any similarities.

An interim report is created, denoting which names are a definite match or a definite no-match.

All similar names (or other data) are manually checked by an ExclusionALERT™ Specialist, to determine if the individual or entity can be verified as a match; and the names which are manually reviewed are noted for the client, with the final determination.

The ExclusionALERT™ family of services also includes:

LicenseALERT™ – provides professional license verification and monitoring which complies with the requirements of Medicare providers and suppliers.

VendorALERT™ – provides a comprehensive vendor certification program which verifies that all vendors pass applicable exclusion requirements and are approved for payment.

Application Researchers® has been in operation since 1994 and has been providing OIG LEIE research for more than fifteen years. We use a proprietary, internet-accessible software (Zip24AR®), which allows clients to securely request service, view progress in real-time and view/store reports.
